TOH DAR MANGTAA

Toh Dar Mangtaa Lakh-a Hazaarein
Aaun Bi Laalarn Ik Fakeer

Toh Laaye Lok-a Lajaa Sab Laatham
Toh Laaye Akhiriyun Manjh Ukeer
Toh Dar Mangtaa Lakh-a Hazaarein
Aaun Bi Laalarn Ik Fakeer

Roee Roee Raat Guzaariyam
Bakhsh Toon Muhinjee Taqseer
Toh Dar Mangtaa Lakh-a Hazaarein
Aaun Bi Laalarn Ik Fakeer

Toh Bin Naa Byo Koee Sujaaraan
Toon Ik Muhinjo Shaahan Peer
Toh Dar Mangtaa Lakh-a Hazaarein
Aaun Bi Laalarn Ik Fakeer

Dar-a Jee Khaak Dey Khadim-a Khay
Thee Nuri Nimaareen Vahaa-ay Neer
Toh Dar Mangtaa Lakh-a Hazaarein
Aaun Bi Laalarn Ik Fakeer


AT YOUR DOOR!

A hundred thousand mendicants
Wait at Thy door,
Beloved!
I am but one amongst them!

For Thee I have forsaken
What the world calls shame,
I do but carry
Within mine eyes
Deep longing for Thee!

I did weep the whole night long:
O pardon Thou my every wrong!

Besides Thee, Beloved,
I know none else,
None else:
Thou alone art
My Sovereign Saint!

O give unto Thy slave
The dust of Thy doorstep:
Nuri, meek and humble
Sheds tears for Thee!
